Do My Symptoms Have Anything To Do With My Lowered Levo?
I am getting so fed up. The doctor put my Levo down from 100mcg to 75mcg a few months ago, she wouldn’t have it that I felt better on a higher dose. I’m pretty sure I talked about this previously in a post. But lately my digestion has been bad, I am so tired in the afternoon that I’m yawning a lot

Blood test
I always have my blood test when I have taken levothyroxine in the morning. I would have thought I should not have taken it on the morning of the blood test. I am always feeling cold and my heart is racing and have mentioned this to the doctors today. Any advice, please.

Hypothyroidism help
I had a thyroidectomy in 1984, to remove benign growths. The surgeon said about 25% thyroid remained, but he thought I would not need subsequent medication. I was not told to have regular thyroid function tests, and carried on with my busy life. After unrelated throat surgery in 1997, my consultant asked

Thyroglobulin antibodies test
I tested for thyroid markers recently.I was already diagnosed last summer with hypothyroidism and am medicated with Levothyroxine, so the values of TSH T4 are now in the control range with T3 low borderline. However, anti Tg came positive at 570IU/ml which I understands suggests autoimmune underlying

HRT patches and Levothyroxine
hi everyone I am on 75mg of Levothyroxine and have also been taking Sertraline. This pushed my TSH levels open. Since stopping the Sertraline my levels have dropped but now I’m getting more hot flushes and aching joints and restless legs. My doctor had suggested HRT patches but I’m worried that these

T3 Trial continued
Medichecks 20 March 2024 History:
Hypothyroid (after RAI in c2004)
Spent 2023 improving folate, B12, Vit D although ferritin still poor. Came off PPIs and now take Gaviscon twice daily. Gastritis issues ongoing though. Officially a poor converter (dud DIO2) so really wanted to try T3 Gluten

Suppression of TSH but low T4/T3 levels whilst taking Levo/Lio Combo
A few years ago, my thyroid results were looking a lot better but NHS GP over the last 2 years has told me to reduce my dosage twice (because of the 'risks' of overtreatment). I'm now on 100mcg levothyroxine (75mcg supplied by GP and topped up by myself) and 25mcg liothyronine (self-sourced). I now don't

NAC and Thyroid Antibodies
Currently hypothyroid, high TgAB, TPO and TSI normal. Am on 600mcg of levothyroxine across the week. Has anyone had success in reducing thyroid antibodies by taking NAC? What other supplements do you take to support thyroid health besides vit D, iron, B12, Folate? These are already under control
